I’m losing my mind. The above Facebook conversation between Miti and me transpired ten days ago. Last week Miti sent me the two pictures she drew here and I couldn’t remember why, as much as I liked them, they were significant to the post I had originally envisaged. So Miti sent me the whole conversation! You really gotta love Facebook sometimes!
So here’s Miti Aiello’s Words to Water (written by Miti):
You can write anytime you like
But you can never reach.The drawings have to do with trying to reach someone who can never be reached. A human wall.
The wall is made of different things, could be spite, pride, ignorance.
If the lady who is writing wasn’t so naive she would look around the wall where the mailbox is and realize her letters would never be answered, or never in the spirit of which she sent them.

Tonight is the launch of the Contemporary Art Platform at the Life Center in Shuwaikh. For the first time since 2006′s exhibition Unity in Diversity at the Dar Al-Funoon gallery, you can find, in Kuwait, a collection of this caliber under one roof. From Andy Warhol to Shireen Nishat, this is the art lover’s candy store!
Please check out the invitation here for all the information you may need and a map.

I think this is going to be one of the most exciting events of the year, if only for the birth of a new Kuwaiti hub for the contemporary arts. I’m not going to be able to attend but gallery director Liane Al-Ghusain was gracious enough to let me have a sneak peak Wednesday morning, an experience I will definitely be sharing with you guys. Good luck, Liane!
Cross the bridge for details. (more…)

Botamba continue to display their professional ineptitude and outright rudeness. A few days ago I posted this and this. I have to say that I apologize to the blogs that I mentioned because as of today, one of them has been removed from this so-called aggregator. The owner of the freshly removed blog contacted me today with his grievances towards the site. He forwarded me both his letter to the site’s owner concerning preferentialism and the owner’s response. Apparently Botamba is selective to what they deem worthy of retweeting. This is an excerpt from Mr. Stillsearching’s second letter to Botamba:
listen, you either offer a service, or you don’t.
what about the tweets?
